Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof

Abstract

A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a handwritten object outputted via the mobile terminal can be set to be shared with an external terminal. The present invention includes a wireless communication unit configured to perform a communication with an external terminal, a touchscreen configured to receive a 1 st touch input of a 1 st desired trace, and a controller, if the 1 st touch input is applied in a 1 st handwriting input mode, controlling a 1 st handwritten object drawn along the 1 st desired trace to be simultaneously displayed via the touchscreen and the external terminal, the controller, if the 1 st touch input is applied in a 2 nd handwriting input mode, controlling the 1 st handwritten object to be displayed on the touchscreen only.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A mobile terminal comprising:
 a wireless communication unit configured to communicate with an external terminal;   a touchscreen configured to receive a 1 st  touch input of a 1 st  desired trace; and   a controller configured such that:
 if the 1 st  touch input is applied in a 1 st  handwriting input mode then a 1 st  handwritten object drawn along the 1 st  desired trace is simultaneously displayed via the touchscreen and the external terminal, and 
 if the 1 st  touch input is applied in a 2 nd  handwriting input mode, then the 1 st  handwritten object is displayed on the touchscreen only. 
   
     
     
         2 . The mobile terminal of  claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to determine, upon receipt of a 2 nd  touch input of a 2 nd  desired trace from the external terminal, whether to display a 2 nd  handwritten object drawn along the 2 nd  desired trace depending on a presence or non-presence of a handwriting input authority of the external terminal. 
     
     
         3 . The mobile terminal of  claim 2 , wherein if the external terminal does not have the handwriting input authority, the controller controls the 2 nd  handwritten object not to be displayed on the touchscreen and wherein if the external terminal has the handwriting input authority, the controller controls the 2 nd  handwritten object to be displayed on the touchscreen. 
     
     
         4 . The mobile terminal of  claim 2 , wherein the 1 st  handwritten object is displayed on a 1 st  region of the touchscreen and wherein the 2 nd  handwritten object is displayed on a 2 nd  region of the touchscreen. 
     
     
         5 . The mobile terminal of  claim 1 , further comprising a microphone configured for a voice recording, wherein the controller is configured to activate the microphone to enable the voice recording to proceed in either the 1 st  handwriting input mode or the 2 nd  handwriting input mode. 
     
     
         6 . The mobile terminal of  claim 5 , wherein if data of the voice recording is created in the 1 st  handwriting input mode, the controller is configured to control the voice recording data to be provided to the external terminal, and wherein if the data of the voice recording is created in the 2 nd  handwriting input mode, the controller controls the voice recording data not to be provided to the external terminal. 
     
     
         7 . The mobile terminal of  claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to control a capture image to be created by capturing an output image displayed on the touchscreen. 
     
     
         8 . The mobile terminal of  claim 7 , wherein the controller is configured to determine whether the 1 st  handwritten object will be included in the capture image based on a user command. 
     
     
         9 . The mobile terminal of  claim 8 , wherein the controller is configured to control the capture image to be transmitted to a 3 rd  terminal. 
     
     
         10 . The mobile terminal of  claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to control a plurality of function tools, for entering the 1 st  handwriting input mode or the 2 nd  handwriting input mode, to be displayed on the basis of a user command. 
     
     
         11 . The mobile terminal of  claim 10 , wherein a 1 st  function tool among a plurality of the function tools is configured to enable the mobile terminal to enter the 1 st  handwriting input mode and wherein a 2 nd  function tool among a plurality of the function tools is configured to enable the mobile terminal to enter the 2 nd  handwriting input mode. 
     
     
         12 . The mobile terminal of  claim 11 , wherein the controller is configured to control at least one attribute assigned to either the 1 st  function tool or the 2 nd  function tool to be applied to the 1 st  handwritten object. 
     
     
         13 . A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
 establishing a communication channel with an external terminal;   entering either a 1 st  handwriting input mode or a 2 nd  handwriting input mode based on a user input;   if a 1 st  touch input of a 1 st  desired trace is applied in the 1 st  handwriting input mode, displaying a 1 st  handwritten object drawn along the 1 st  desired trace on both a touchscreen and the external terminal simultaneously; and   if the 1 st  touch input is applied in the 2 nd  handwriting input mode, displaying the 1 st  handwritten object on the touchscreen only.   
     
     
         14 . A computer program product comprising computer readable code which, when executed on a processing system, cause the processing system to perform the method of  claim 13 . 
     
     
         15 . A computer readable medium comprising the computer readable code of  claim 14 .
